CONTENT OF THE LESSON

LESSON 1 – INTRODUCTION 

Skip counting is a method of counting numbers by adding a number every time to the previous number.

For example,

Skip counting by 2, we get 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and so on.

2

2 + 2 = 4

4 + 2 = 6

6 + 2 = 8

8 + 2 = 10

10 + 2 = 12, and so on.

 

 

Skip counting by 3, we get 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and so on.

3

3 + 3 = 6

6 + 3 = 9

9 + 3 = 12

12 + 3 = 15

15 + 3 = 18, and so on.

 

Skip counting by 4, we get 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and so on.

Skip counting by 5, we get 5, 10. 15, 20, 25, 30, and so on.

Skip counting by 6, we get 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, and so on.

Skip counting by 7, we get 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, and so on.

Skip counting by 8, we get 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, and so on.

Skip counting by 9, we get 9, 18, 36, 45, 54, 63, and so on.

Skip counting by 10, we get 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and so on.

 

 

LESSON 2 – OPEN AND CLOSED SENTENCES 

ACTIVITY 1 – INTRODUCTION

Open sentence is a sentence that is unknown to be true or false. For example, 5 + (  ) = 8.

5 + (  ) = 8 is a mathematical statement that contains one blank or unknown variable that can be either true or false depending on what values are used.

5 + 3 = 8 is a closed sentence, it is true.

5 + 2 = 8 is a closed sentence, it is false.

A sentence is a closed sentence is always true (or always false).

A sentence is an open sentence when it is unknown to be true or false. In an open sentence, a symbol or any alphabetical letter can be used as variable.

For example, 5 + (  ) = 8 or 5 + x = 8

 

 

ACTIVITY 2 – WORKING EXERCISES ON CLOSED SENTENCES 

Indicate True or False for each of the following closed sentences.

1. 6 + 5 = 11

2. 4 + 4 = 14

3. 8 + 0 = 80

4. 5 – 4 = 3

5. 9 + 6 = 16

6. 5 – 3 = 2

7. 9 – 5 = 5

8. 6 – 3 = 3

9. 7 + 4 = 11

10. 11 – 11 = 01

 

 

LESSON 3 – OPEN SENTENCES

ACTIVITY 1 – REVIEW OF OPEN SENTENCES 

A sentence is an open sentence when it is unknown to be true or false. In an open sentence, a symbol or any alphabetical letter can be used as variable.

 

ACTIVITY 2 – OPEN SENTENCES INVOLVING ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION 

Examples

1. 5 + (  ) = 8, what number can be added to 5 to get 8?

5 + ( 3 ) = 8

 

2. (  ) – 3 = 8, what number can be minus 3 to get 8?

( 11 ) – 3 = 8

 

3. 15 – (  ) = 7, what number can be subtracted from 15 to get 7?

15 – ( 8 ) = 7

 

4. (  ) + 11 = 19, what number can be added to 11 to get 19?

( 8 ) + 11 = 19

 

 

ACTIVITY 3 – WORKING EXERCISE 

Find the number presented by (  ) in each of the following:

1. (  ) + 13 = 18

2. 9 + (  ) = 15

3. (  ) – 11 = 7

4. 19 – (  ) = 10

5. 11 + 9 = (  )

 

 

LESSON 4 – REVISION ON OPEN AND CLOSED SENTENCES

ACTIVITY 1 – Indicate True or False for each of the following closed sentences. 

1. 6 + 5 = 11

2. 4 + 4 = 14

3. 8 + 0 = 80

4. 5 – 4 = 3

5. 9 + 6 = 16

6. 5 – 3 = 2

7. 9 – 5 = 5

8. 6 – 3 = 3

9. 7 + 4 = 11

 

ACTIVITY 2 – Find the number presented by (  ) in each of the following:

1. (  ) + 13 = 18

2. 9 + (  ) = 15

3. (  ) – 11 = 7

4. 19 – (  ) = 10

5. 11 + 9 = (  )

 

 

LESSON 5 – ASSESSMENT TEST

As stated in course book. 

 

 

PRESENTATION

To deliver the lesson, the teacher adopts the following steps:

1. To introduce the lesson, the teacher revises the previous lesson. Based on this, he/she asks the pupils some questions;

2. Teacher organizes the pupils in groups or pair depending on the size of the class.

3. Teacher displays charts showing open and close sentences.

4. Teacher leads a group discussion open and closed sentences.

5. Teacher uses the charts and the group’s relevant responses to introduce the lesson.

6. Teacher explains in details using appropriate examples to distinguish between open and closed sentences.

7. Teacher guides the pupils through working examples and appropriate working exercises.

8. Teacher summarizes the lesson on the board with appropriate evaluation.

Pupil’s Activities – The pupils participate actively in the summary of the lesson by responding correctly to most of the questions write as instructed.

 

 

CONCLUSION

To conclude the lesson for the week, the teacher revises the entire lesson and links it to the following week’s lesson.
